In 2004, the McLaren Formula 1 Team invented something that made their car half a second faster overnight.
They kept it secret for years. And when it finally leaked, every team copied it within months.
But the strangest part? NASA copied it too. It's now on spacecraft.
This weird device, and many other technologies, tell a story no one talks about. The story of how F1 became the most advanced engineering lab on Earth. And how NASA realised they should be paying attention.
